KNON 89.3 FM is a non-profit Community radio station in Dallas, Texas. We celebrated 30 years of broadcasting on July 30th, 2013. To mark this event, we began our "Online History Museum" to collect and archive our amazing story of survival in the 5th largest radio market in the USA. KNON was chosen BEST radio station in Dallas by the Dallas Observer and D Magazine in 2011. We were also picked BEST radio station for music by the Dallas Observer in 2012 and 2014.

2002 and 2003

Dave Chaos became station manager on June 1, 2002 and was the first station manager to rise through the KNON ranks from volunteer, to programmer, and then staff member. He remains our station manager today.

Also in 2002, KNON's Texas Blues Radio was named the Best Radio Show by the Fort Worth Weekly.

In 2003 yet another attempt at a station newsletter was tried. The KNON Quarterly suffered the same fate as all our other newsletters. After a few issues it simply disappeared.
